Specification of Letters Patent.
v Patented Sept. 1, 1908.
Application filed February 15, 1907. Serial No. 357,497.
T 0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, JAMES H. TAYLOR and 12mm TAYLOR, citizens of the United States, and residents of the city of Philadelphia, State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in IIairJ/Vavers, of which the follow ing is a full, clear, and complete disclosure.
Our invention relates to devices employed in waving hair.
One object of our invention is to provide a simple, inexpensive and durable device whereby hair may be conveniently and quickly curled or waved without the appli cation of heat and without injuring or causing the hair to split or break.
A further object of our invention is to provide a device that may be used to form the French wave.
The preferred embodiment of this invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a perspective view of the waver constructed in accordance with our invention, and in closed position, the dotted lines indicating the position of the spring retaining pin or member when the waver is open. Fig. 2 is a plan view, and Fig. 3 a side ele'vation of the waver as applied to the lockof hair. Fig. 4 is a plan view and Fig. 5, a side elevation of the waver in its normal open position. Fig. 6 is a plan view; Fig. 7 a side elevation and Fig. 8 an end elevation showing the waver in a closed or locked position. Fig. 9 is a section of the waver on line 9-9 of Fig. 6. Fig. 10 is an enlarged fragmentary perspective view of the hinged end of the waver. Fig. 11 is an enlarged. transverse section showing another form of the waver in which the body member of the waver is substantially'square in transverse section, with the hair clamped around the same.
The drawings show this device constructed of two members, a body member 1, and a spring retaining member or pin consisting of two limbs 2-2, and a central connecting portion 3. The body 1 is formed preferably of sheet metal and consists of a bottom thereto, two sides 5 and 6, and an end 7. The end 7 is provided with an extension 8, which is curved outwardly and downwardly to embrace the central portion 3 of the re taining member to form. a pivotal bearing for the same. In order to stiffen the said end against the stress brought to bear by the pin the end is proportioned and arranged to overlap the adjoining end edges of the sides of the body, and to further strengthen the structure a central longitudinal rib 9 is formed in the inner lower part of the end, extending about an equal distance along the bottom. The sides are provided at the open end of the channel with inwardly and downwardly turned extensions 10 and 11 forming catches for the free ends of the pin, the distance between the inner edges of the catches being less than twice the thickness of the pin, so that the two arms of the pin have to be separately inserted and released. The pin is preferably formed and arranged so that the distance between the two arms adjoining the pivotal support thereof is equal to the distance between the two sides of the body of the waver. The limbs 2 of the pin normally spring outwardly and to facilitate their engagement with the catches the ends of said limbs are turned downwardly for short distances at points 12 and 13 respectively, falling inside the catches, and then again extended in a direction parallel to their original direction and terminating beyond the end of the body of the waver in outward curves.
' In using this invention for the purpose of waving the hair, the hair is dampened and a lock thereof is wound spirally around the body of the waver, the lock being constantly twisted as it is wound. The ends of the retaining pin or member are then pressed down and brought into engagement with the catches binding the hair firmly against the longitudinal edges of the body of the waver. The hair is left in this position for fifteen or twenty minutes until the waves are formed, when the pins are released and the hair unwound from the waver.
This waver on account of the general shape of its transverse section presents decided ad vantages over other wavers in which the transverse section of the body portion is round or flat. It is obvious that the corners and edges in this device will give a more decided and permanent wave than any device in which the hair is wound over a body hav ing a round transverse section. It is also obvious that the waves formed by a body of substantially square cross section and presenting two abrupt longitudinal corners and two abrupt longitudinal edges and an intervening channel, such as shown in Fig. 11 of this device would be of a different nature from that formed by any comparatively flat body and would have more pronounced curves. A further advantage of this waver is that, on account of the open channel formation of .its body member, the air is allowed to penetrate freely within the coils of hair wound thereon, and thus a beneficial ventilation of the hair is maintained, and the hair is more rapidly dried than on other forms of wavers where the body member is solid or closed.
- When the hair is wound about the channel shaped body member and the retaining member is applied as shown in Fig. 11, the waves sides of the channel.
. ally as well as longitudinally and is formedv into a series of regular and well defined undulations. These waves are usually formed over an expensive hot iron and a separate application of the iron is required for each wave or undulation and great care has to be shown in Fig. 11.
exercised to properly space the undulations and to give the right amount of lateral curve. This hot process is laborious and tedious, requires the assistance of a hair dresser to obtain the best results andinjures the hair by reason of the excessive heat and pressure needed. to form the waves.
The improved waver herein shown may be made substantially square in cross section as This equality in dimensions gives a desirable uniformity of wave length. The improved waver herein shown is inexpensive, requires no heating, is quickly and conveniently applied without assistance, and the waves are impressed without breaking, splitting or injuring the hair.
Having thus fully described our invention what we claim and desire to protect by Letters Patent of the United States is 1. A hair waver comprising a body member of channel shape in cross section, open substantially its full length on one side, and a retaining member on said open side and overla ping the longitudinal edges thereof.
